Turk is a strong addition to Camas Council To be an effective elected representative I think it requires a focus on process, information gathering (through listening, reading, and participation), fact-checking, balancing big-picture with the details, then consensus building and/or compromising to reach a decision.
For the first time in years, all three seats up for election on the East County Fire & Rescue Board of Commissioners are being challenged in the Nov. 8 General Election. The three incumbents with more than 50 years of history on the commission between them are hoping to retain their seats against as the run against three men with a total of nearly 90 years of career fire fighting and on-the-job emergency services experience.
Turk will be an effective voice We are privileged to have Shannon Turk running for the Ward 3 position of the Camas City Council.
Voters have two choices as they cast their ballots for Port of Camas-Washougal Commission District 2, and while the Post-Record is recommending Bill Ward to fill that seat, his challenger Neil Cahoon has presented himself as a noteworthy opponent.
Camas and Washougal voters have an opportunity on Nov. 8 to keep existing C-Tran bus service intact, in their community and throughout Clark County, by voting 'yes' on Proposition 1.
McDaniel considers all sides I have known Jennifer McDaniel for many years, and I believe she is an effective, dedicated member of our City Council. Not only does she do her own research when faced with tough issues, she considers all sides, and ultimately puts Washougal first when making her decisions.
It won't be long before General Election ballots begin arriving in local mailboxes, and what voters in Washougal will find are eight City Council candidates -- all with very different backgrounds and viewpoints on local issues.
ECFR incumbents are effective The majority of the East County Fire and Rescue Board of Commissioners is up for re-election this year. Collectively, Gary Larson, John Clancy and Jack Hoober have over 52 years of experience. As a 17-year resident, and a past fire commissioner for ECFR, I witnessed firsthand the exceptional performance of these individuals.
It's been full steam ahead for the Camas-Washougal Economic Development Association, a partnership between the cities of Camas and Washougal, and the Port of Camas-Washougal that was organized earlier this year.
City Council made well thought out decision Watching our City Council deal with the Farrell House unclassified use permit after receiving a recommended approval by our Planning Commission was most rewarding. They did their homework and were well prepared to deliberate the pros and cons of this permit. Their focus was on maintaining the quality of living of our residential neighborhood, not how to make a business fit among well-established family homes.
